Made this birthday card for my girlfriend tonight!

I have a special album just for my kids studio photos! It is a very plain album but simple is exactly what I wanted. I want the pictures to be the focal point and nothing else. Here are the latest addictions to that album!

Check out Lori McDonald's blog (http://belovedkeepsakes.blogspot.com/) for a freebie Friday file! She makes some great files and this one is really cute. Here is this Fridays:

I am finally back - I am not a scrapbooker or crafter at all during the summer months as many of my good friends can tell you. I would much rather be outside enjoying the weather! This summer has been perfect - with not to many super hot days! I start getting back into things around the end of August mainly because I have a group of friends that gets together at a retreat in September and I need to get things organized for that. This is a great motivation for getting back into things and by this time I start missing it anyways! Below are the recipe cards that I made for our retreats recipe swaps for desserts and soups. I also just got done labeling the kids binders for school today (I LOVE my cricut for these type of things) - can't believe my youngest is going to be in Middle School and my oldest in Jr. High - where does the time go?
